Doc Henry Posted January 20, 2016 Author Share #9881 Posted January 20, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) Konstanz by -Ric Capucho- Contax T2 and the usual XP2. This was taken on a car ferry as we were crossing Lake Constance (also known as the Bodensee) and I spotted another ferry coming the other way. What the photo doesn't show is that it was bitterly cold, and because I'd jumped out of the car for a quick snap I didn't bother putting on a jacket. So I framed the shot in the view finder... and then realised I'd have to wait a couple of minutes because the ferry was a tiny spot in the distance. By now people were looking out of their warn cars at the shirt-sleeved idiot with the funny old camera, and taking bets as to how long I'd last out there. "Click", turned on my heel, and ran back and then into the car. Brrrrrrrr. Wife and kids thought I was nuts. I *knew* I was nuts. Ric Only one word : Superb Ric Best Henry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrism Posted January 20, 2016 Share #9883 Posted January 20, 2016 Chris, in France we can purchase Tetenal in liquid. I did not know that it exists in powder Best Henry The Tetenal brand of powdered presskit is the same as Unicolor or Jobo brands - just a different label on the box. I have found the Rollei Digibase kit available here from argentix.ca, and this looks like it is the same as the Tetenal liquid kit. Anyone used it?

chrism Posted January 20, 2016 Share #9885 Posted January 20, 2016 When I have finished up the 4 or 5 presskits I have in stock I'll try the Rollei Digibase (assuming Argentix still sell it by then!) I see they also sell a Legacy Pro equivalent of HC-110, to be used just the same, but not as syrupy. I might try that too. C. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hepcat Posted January 20, 2016 Share #9889 Posted January 20, 2016 (edited) The two I've posted so far have been kind of sentimental and not of great quality. This is Noyo Harbor in Fort Bragg, Ca in 1992. Shot from the quay with a Hassy 500cm, the bridge in the background has been replaced by a more modern span. This is the harbor where the harbor scenes from the Goldie Hawn-Curt Russell movie "Overboard" was filmed. The scene where Goldie Hawn threw Russell's toolbox overboard was filmed at the right of the frame where the fishing boats are moored. I've exhibited this in a couple of places as part of a three-piece set. The other two pieces will follow.

rpavich Posted January 20, 2016 Share #9896 Posted January 20, 2016 I tried again today with 20ºC C-41 development. This time I used 1+5 dilution of the colour developer (50ml of CD and 250ml water in a Paterson 35mm tank) for 50 minutes. I solved the surge marks from the sprocket holes that I got yesterday by using the swizzle stick for rotary agitation - 30 seconds every ten minutes. Followed with 6.5 minutes of blix at 20ºC and stabiliser. The negatives look a bit more like a normally developed film, but on scanning they still have a strong purple tint rather than the usual blue. Raw scans and inversion in ColorPerfect gets the colours just about spot on. Only very slight tweaks to colour temperature and tint were needed. C-41 Semistand #13 by chrism229, on Flickr C-41 Semistand #12 by chrism229, on Flickr C-41 Semistand #11 by chrism229, on Flickr C-41 Semistand #10 by chrism229, on Flickr I make no claims for the subjects; I simply needed to expose the film to play with the developing! And it's -10ºC outside, so I didn't care to go out more than I had to. So it seems like a workable method, but with pouring, diluting, 50 minutes of development and agitating every ten minutes, it tied me to the kitchen sink for about an hour and a half. Now this isn't quicker than heating the solutions in a water bath followed by the standard quick development, and at least I can go and do something else while the solutions warm up. Standard development also means I can scan with the X1 (which is quick) and get good colours. These need the magic of ColorPerfect, which means slow raw scans on the Nikon. I'll probably go back to 39ºC development, but it was fun to experiment. Chris That's what was thinking too. I bought a temp probe and a hotplate to warm the chems , developmore today and report 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
